Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

“This is a 1952 Jeep Willy’s in excellent condition, perfect for the deer lease. It runs great and has a new 50lb deer feeder on the back. It also has a custom High Seat built on the back of the Jeep. This Jeep is unstoppable. If you have any questions feel free to call. Thanks

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3400
(04/14/2013) This appears to have potential. It runs and drives.
“This is a 1946 Willys Jeep model CJ2A Universal. The body is very solid although it has had some patches done some time in its life. Drive it as is, or would make an easy restoration to factory original. It runs great and all the running gear works great. It does, however need brake work, electrical work, radiator service and some other misc. stuff. Currently registered in my name with transferable ownership available immediately. This Jeep is NOT ready for the road just yet, but it wouldn’t take much.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This has the APU hood. Unclear if this was a converted APU flattie or if the hood was added later to this flattie. Only half hour left in the auction:
Joe wrote, “This was the parade entry for the Ft. Miles (DE) Historical Association, 261st Coast Artillery. All the old war horses with military veterans aboard were well received by the thousands in attendance along the parade route.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. Listed as a Wyandotte Wooden Jeep on the eBay ad, a reader points out in the comments it is actually a “U.S. Army Miniature Jeep No. 1262” manufactured by the Wood Commodities Corp. New York City U.S.A.
It’s not in perfect shape, but it’s a neat little wooden jeep.
“NICE WYANDOTTE WORLD WAR II WOODEN JEEP
DURING THE SUSPENSION OF MAKING METAL AND STEEL TOYS DUE TO THE WAR EFFORT WYANDOTTE MADE A FEW WOODEN TOYS INCLUDING THIS NICE JEEP.
MEASURES 12” LONG
TOP OF HOOD HAS A STAR AND U.S.A. DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE IS MARKED W.D. 63
FRONT LICENSE SAY X ZII 4-M REAR HAS U.S.A. W.D
MADE COMPLETELY OF WOOD
THIS IS A VERY HARD TO FIND WYANDOTTE TOY AND IS WONDERFUL FOR BEING SOME 70 YEARS OLD”
This 1945 notes that the lessons learned from creating US Royal tires for the military are reflected in the company’s new U.S. Royal DeLuxe Tires.
“Here is a hard to find original advertisement for The United States Rubber Company. This great old WWII era Ad was removed from a vintage 1945 Magazine.
Page is about 10 inches by 12 1/2 inches with the actual ad perhaps a bit smaller. Condition of this 68+ year old Ad is excellent.”
